Definitions
- the present invention relates to exercise equipment and, more particularly, to a lower body exercise device that is configurable between a collapsed configuration for easy transport and stowage and an extended yet compact configuration for use.
- Blood clots also called deep vein thrombosis
- blood clots can form in the deep (not visible) veins of the legs of a passenger. The longer the period of immobility, the greater the risk of developing a blood clot. Doctors thus recommend that passengers move their legs when on long trips improve the flow of blood.
- the present invention is a compact exercise device that can be unfolded from a collapsed configuration for use in a small area, such as the floor in front of an airline seat, so that a user can perform exercises that reduce the likelihood of deep vein thrombosis.
- the exercise device comprises a crank housing supporting a pedal crank having a pair of opposing pedals that are pivotally mounted to the pedal crank.
- a pair of struts extends from the crank housing and one of the struts has a hinge that allows the leg to fold inward into a collapsed configuration against the opposing leg.
- a lock may be associated with the hinge for retaining the leg in the unfolded position.
- a cross-member is positioned at the end of each strut to form legs for supporting the pedal crank in an upright position for use by an operator.
- a strap may be coupled to one of the pair of legs for additionally securing the exercise device to an airline seat.
- a tensioner associated with the crank housing is connected to the pedal crank for selectively increasing and decreasing the force needed to turn the pedal crank so that a user can adjust the amount of force needed to operate the pedal crank.
- a telescoping arm may also be used to easily stow the exercise device under a desk, table, chair, seat, or other article of furniture,
- FIG. 1 is a top plan of an exercise device according to the present invention in an unfolded configuration
- FIG. 2 is a side view of an exercise device according to the present invention in an unfolded configuration
- FIG. 3 is another side view of view of an exercise device according to the present invention in a folded configuration
- FIG. 4 is a top plan of an exercise device according to the present invention in a folded flat configuration
- FIG. 5 is a side view of an exercise device mounted under a desk and in a stored position according to the present invention
- FIG. 6 is a side view of an exercise device mounted under a desk and in an extended position according to the present invention.
- FIG. 7 is a perspective view of an exercise device mounted under a desk and in an extended position according to the present invention.
- FIG. 8 is a side view of an exercise device mounted under a seat and in a stored position according to the present invention.
- FIG. 9 is a side view of an exercise device mounted under a seat and in an extended position according to the present invention.
- FIG. 1 an exerciser 10 comprising a base 12 formed from two opposing struts 14 and 16 that are interconnected to each other by an axle housing 18 and extend outwardly.
- Outward ends of struts 14 and 16 include cross-members 20 and 22 that define two pairs of legs for secure engagement with a planar surface, such as a floor.
- the ends of the legs formed by cross-members 20 and 22 may be capped with resilient caps 24 to increase frictional contact with the planar surface upon which exercise device is placed.
- Struts 14 and 16 as well as cross-members 20 and 22 are preferably tubular to maximize strength while minimizing weight, and may be manufactured from high strength polymers or light weight metals and metal alloys for the same reason.
- a strap 26 may be coupled to base 12 to allow exercise 10 to be attached to an external structure, such as an airplane seat, to restrict movement of exercise device 10 when in use.
- Strut 14 includes a hinge 28 dividing strut 14 into first and second segments 30 and 32 . As seen in FIGS. 2 and 3 , hinge 28 allows segments 30 and 32 to move between a first, collapsed configuration and a second, extended configuration. Hinge 28 further includes a locking member 34 that may be engaged and disengaged to selectively lock and unlock segments 30 and 32 in their extended configuration and, optionally, the collapsed configurations.
- Axle housing 18 supports a pedal crank 36 having an axle 38 extending through axle housing 18 to position user pedals 40 and 42 on opposite sides of axle housing 18 .
- pedal crank 36 may be supported in axle housing 18 by a sealed bearing or similar structure for smooth rotation within axle housing 18 .
- a tensioner 44 may be coupled to axle housing 18 to allow a user to change the amount of force needed to turn pedal crank 36 .
- User pedals 40 and 42 are pivotally mounted to pedal crank 36 for movement between a folded position where pedals 40 and 42 are centrally stowed, and an unfolded position where pedals 40 and 42 are positioned so that a user can place their feet on pedals 40 and 42 to operate pedal crank 36 when exercise device 10 is placed on the floor in front of user, such as on the floor of an airplane in front of a passenger seat.
- exercise device 10 may be dimensioned so that it is 10 inches in width, 9.5 inches in height, and 15 inches in length and thus will fit within the standard floor space in the coach section of an airplane (approximately 17 inches in length and width). Collapsing strut 14 and folding pedals 40 and 42 inwardly will reduce the dimensions to just 5 inches in width, 12 inches in height, and 15 inches in length. As a result, exercise device 10 can be easily carried on and/or stored on an airplane in the collapsed configuration, and then unfolded and placed on the floor of the airplane for use. Using tensioner 44 , a user may establish a comfortable amount of resistance and proceed to perform exercises that will increase blood flow and reduce the risk of thrombosis without having to leave the passenger seat. After exercise, device 10 may be collapsed and stowed.
- hinge 28 of exercise device 10 may be substituted with a coupling 50 that allows for rotation of struts 14 and 16 relative to each other so that device 10 may be positioned into a substantially planar configuration.
- coupling 50 comprises two strut engaging tubes 52 and 54 positioned at right angles to each other.
- Each of tubes 52 and 54 have manually adjustable clamps 56 and 58 associated therewith for selectively fixing and releasing struts 14 and 16 therein.
- releasing struts 14 and 16 allows rotation of struts 14 and 16 relative to each other so that device 10 may be folded flat into a substantially planar configuration. It should be recognized that this configuration may allow for each storage or transportation of device 10 in certain locations where a planar configuration is more advantageous, e.g., in a briefcase, under a seat, etc.
- exercise device 10 may be configured to be stored under a desk or table 60 when in the folded, planar configuration, and then extended from table 60 and unfolded for use.
- Exercise device 10 is mounted to table 60 via a telescoping arm 62 that is pivotally attached at one end to table 60 and at the other end, for example, to one of cross-members 20 or 22 .
- One or more hooks 64 may be used to secure device 10 in place under table 60 .
- exercise device 10 may be used by a person seated at table 60 . Referring to FIGS.
- exercise device 10 may be similarly interconnected via telescoping arm 62 under a seat 66 , whether a chair, airplane seat, lounge etc. for storage when in a folded configuration and use in the unstowed and unfolded configuration. It should be recognized by those of skill in the art that device 10 could be interconnected to table 60 or seat 66 via similar structures, whether telescoping or not, and with or without pivoting, swiveling, etc.
